OUR STORY

Atlanta Belt Life was born from a simple idea: locals deserve to feel plugged in. As your inside guide to everything happening in and around the BeltLine, we’re here to keep you in the loop on can’t-miss events, restaurant openings, art showcases, exclusive deals, and more. Inspired by the success of Lake Oconee Life and Lake Sinclair Life, founder Holly Hackinson brought her passion for connecting communities and supporting small businesses to Atlanta’s most vibrant neighborhoods. Whether you’re a longtime local, a weekend explorer, or brand new to the city, consider us your go-to hub for BeltLine buzz. We’re here to help you live like a true insider—every day of the week.

Meet Ciara  

Your Community Director

Hi, I’m Ciara!

I’m excited to be bringing The Local’s Guide to the BeltLine community. I’ve called Lake Oconee home since I was 8 years old and graduated from Georgia College & State University in 2023. After college, I made the move to Atlanta for the opportunities, the energy, the live music—and of course, the unbeatable vibes.

I’m passionate about building connections and supporting local businesses, and I can’t wait to see how we can help grow the BeltLine together. Let’s make magic happen in this city we love. 💛
